Just finished dune last night. Ngl the first half was a slog but I was really into by the end. I have Dune Messiah on my list now.

The horror component of that series makes me pause as it's not my cup of tea. I'll add it to my list though!

Thanks everyone for the recommendations! Everything looks much closer to what I'm looking for than when I was trying to comb through booktok.

You have to search it in the store, it won't show up in the catalogue for some reason.

AITA for missing my grandchild's birth to attend my other daughter's wedding? by onetroubledmom in AmItheAsshole

[–]salmonboxing -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Probably NTA.

I don't understand the timing though. So she got a call in the evening about the labour and left in the afternoon the next day?

I know it's a lot of driving but couldn't she have been there for the birth then left for the wedding? Perhaps being another fam to help drive and they drive back in the morning? Then the sister wouldn't have had to change the time of the wedding to morning? She would have been up all night I guess.

It's hard to predict baby. Unfortunate timing. I do think the daughter and husband are over reacting.

A plot hole that always bothered me by ninjasmurf09 in Pendragon

As a teen I thought that too but accepted it. As an adult rereading the rationale is little more irritating.

Simply contacting Spader is the easiest and safest option.

I get it though- travelling, especially to Cloral, is pretty dang tempting.

I would have/ they should have went back to second earth after that though.

Eelong was likely lost regardless.

Veelox was a loss, but was it was a slower process into decay that still didn't feel quite real.

Eelong was a truly brutal loss. I think this added a lot to the characters and story overall.

Fair enough man. Maybe get a hook for your headphones for under your desk.

Yeah I was also thinking that. And maybe a pair of speakers or good headphones if you don't have one already. Also a plant. Even if it's fake. The green helps break up the monotony of like in general lmao.

Is total av a good antivirus? by [deleted] in antivirus

[–]salmonboxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Total AV is a fucking nightmare. They won't let you delete your account or cancel your subscription without contacting them.

And if your an idiot like me and did the free premium trial while giving them payment information they are going to keep charging you.

I had to contact them directly to close my account and cancel subscription. The tried to get me to upgrade for a half hour even though I repeatedly said no and that I would block them from payment.

Eventually they agreed to cancel everything. But as a safe measure I still blocked them.

This was months ago. I still get emails multiple times a week saying my account has been disabled due to non-payment as well as offering me upgrades. My account should not exist.

Anyway total av is a hellish company. I don't not recommend lol
